I started raising Bloodhounds as a way to stay at home with our daughter. And then our son, Christian, came along! I am a Licensed Massage Therapist and still work away from a few days a week but hope to eventually cut back my workload and spend more time homeschooling Danielle & Christian and playing with our precious puppies! We live on our family farm in The Ozarks of Southwest Missouri. Our dogs get to spend hours running and splashing in “the river” Flat Creek and hiking in the forest. We are outdoor advocates and our bloodhounds love it. Most of our dogs love riding in the car. There is a couple still a little apprehensive but we are working on them.

Our dogs are AKC registered and we have champion bloodlines. Some of our dogs are triple registered with AKC, APRI, and CKC.

Like I mentioned before we are a small breeder. We raise Bloodhounds Only. I’ve learned that there is a lot of “Kennels” out there that concentrate on output. We are NOT a puppy mill. We do not sell to brokers or pet stores because we want to know the home that our puppies will be living in forever. We have a relationship with each and every dog and puppy. Each one receives a lot of attention and the best healthcare possible. We feed Proplan large breed adult/large breed puppy. We supplement dam’s before whelping to insure the easiest labor possible. And our moms just love to receive a massage to help with all of the labor discomfort. We DONOT breed our dogs every heat cycle. (Which means that it is possible to breed a dog every 6-7 months, approx.)

My mission is to breed and raise quality Bloodhounds and bring as much love and joy to you and your family as we have received from our dogs. If you could see our daughter with them you would know that they are loved endlessly. Not only by her but by us all.  I got introduced to Bloodhounds through my mother, Kay  of Tranquil Acres. I've helped with her bloodhounds and like myself, she owns only a select few. They have 3 females and 1 male. And I never thought I would get my own dogs until the day I took "Tori" to the vet for my mom. Let me tell you she had me so wrapped around her "paw" by the time we got there I knew I had to have some of my own.

Let us help you in finding that forever pet. You won’t be disappointed!
